Six Days on the ROAD(fixed)
Release
Author: deltasleep on March 18 2007
--> Greg said I should release something...and I realized it had been way, way too long since I recorded. So here's an apeshit cover of a classic country song. I spent a full 6 hours in one sitting recording this song.
I was going for that blurry and sore feeling you get when you've been on the road too long. I've been working on my chicken shack guitar licks, trying to go for maximum cheese in terms of tone and playing. Watching 60's biker movies will do this to you. The guitar is run through guitar rig 2, the bass is just run direct to my mixer through a DI.
And yes, I know the ending was distasteful, but it seemed like a good idea at the time.

You write the songs that make the whole world sing.
You write the songs of love and special things.
You write the songs that make the young girls cry.
You write the songs, you write the songs.

thanks guys, I really appreciate it. I like to look through music I don't totally like for the interesting parts. To me, a lot of country made around the 60s sounds really electronic because of the use of reverb, EQ, and compression was so extreme. Multiple versions were made of most songs during the era, radio cuts and album cuts and then later on when hi-fi got better, a lot of them were redone when found on best of records. The compression and EQ on the older, radio versions is extreme, making guitars pop and thunk around a lot.

This is soooooooooooooooooooooo awesome! I love the 6-day-bender of a beginning.

I just love this. Can't say more.

Do you have any Lee Hazlewood records?

no, should I?

duh!

You could open for Junior Brown with this. Good times.

Dodging the scales was S.O.P. when I worked for my dad's construction business. Hah.

it's fun. reminds me alot of acid just because of the random transitions and because it gives extreme and extremely different interperetations of the origional. kind of embodies nashville as I know it.

GREAT!

lol, d. link

I agree about the tom letdown, but there is something nice about that little beat
very nice, I thought the extreamly muddled verse was hilarious.
